Strahan Retires

Nfl_image_14409_medium

This is one of my favorite pictures!

 

I know this isn’t Colts news, but I feel it is appropriate to salute Michael Strahan because he has just retired from the NFL. Strahan was always a player that I greatly respected and admired. In fact, back in 2002 BBS asked me, "if you could trade Edge for one player to improve our defense who would it be?" I immediately said, "Michael Strahan."  

Strahan is doing the right thing by going out on top. He just won the Super Bowl in one of the greatest games ever played. Therefore let us salute a great player who had a great career.

Inside the Helmet: My Life as a Sunday Afternoon Warrior by Micheal Strahan.

Funny and Insightful. It has a whole chapter on the hazing/practical jokes that they play on each other, including a great/awful one on Eli Manning.

I'm Outraged

I’m offended that you would even dignify BBS with a response to that question. If BBS would have asked me in 2002 who I would trade The Edge for, I would given him the Happy Gilmore – pulled his shirt over his head and punched him in the nose – for even bringing up the idea of Edge not in blue and white. Then I would have called Edge and told him that BBS had been making inappropriate comments about Edquisha (Edge’s daughter), and supplied him BBS’s address and phone number. And BBS calls Edge one of his favorite players. How dare you sir. How dare you.

Strahan will be back Week 1

He just hates mini-camp and training camp. Thats why he was holding out last year (for that reason and for more money). I wouldn’t be surprised to see him back playing this year.

I thought...

I thought about that, but I really feel this is legitimate.
